Citrus mandarin H220cm

A mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata), often simply called mandarin, is a small, rounded citrus tree fruit. Treated as a distinct species of orange, it is usually eaten plain or in fruit salads. The mandarin is small and oblate, unlike the roughly spherical sweet orange (which is a mandarin-pomelo hybrid). The taste is sweeter and stronger than the common orange. A ripe mandarin orange is firm to slightly soft, heavy for its size, and pebbly-skinned. The peel is thin and loose, with little white mesocarp, so they are usually easier to peel and to split into segments. Hybrids have these traits to lesser degrees. The mandarin orange is tender and is damaged easily by cold. It can be grown in tropical and subtropical areas.

Sunlight

• Morning sun is required. During extreme Dubai summer heat, afternoon shade can help prevent leaf burn.

Watering

• Water deeply until water drains from the bottom.
• Check the soil first before watering.
• In Dubai weather:
  • Summer: usually every day
  • Winter: every 2–3 days
• Avoid overwatering, as it can cause root rot and mushrooms in the soil.

Citrus mandarin trees in Dubai need full sunlight, well-draining soil, regular deep watering only when the soil is dry, proper airflow, occasional fertilizing, and protection from extreme afternoon heat to grow healthy and produce fruits.
